In this verse, the meaning of the words: ‘toward’ and ‘looking’ are focused on semantically by these commentators. Referring to one of the semantic interpretations of the word ‘looking’, some commentators including Ash'arites have maintained that this implies God’s state of being visible (by Man). Imamiyah commentators, however, not only have interpreted the verse correctly, but also have given the false to Ash'arites’s interpretation of this word. In spite of that, Imamiyah commentators have failed to reach a consensus in their own circle. This study has postulated that the verse conveys “They are anticipating the blessing from the side of God”. So, the verse is falsely interpreted as the anticipation of man to visit God. In addition, a group of commentators have known the word ‘toward’ as a preposition, a bulk of research, however, has proved that the word is a noun and means “blessing”.}, Keywords = {Looking toward their Lord, Comment of ambiguous verses, God`s state of being visible, Hope to rewar}, volume = {4}, Number = {16}, pages = {7-22}, publisher = {The Office of Supreme Leaders Representatives in Universities}, url = {http://tafsir.maaref.ac.ir/article-1-1475-en.html}, eprint = {http://tafsir.maaref.ac.ir/article-1-1475-en.pdf}, journal = {Journal of The Holy Quran And Islamic Texts}, issn = {2228-7256}, eissn = {2228-7256}, year = {2013} } @article{ author = {Razzaqi, Hadi}, title = {A Critique of Suyuti, Alusi, Zuhayli and Fakhr Razi`s Comments on the Verse of Tabligh, Proclamation}, abstract ={The comment and background of the verse of proclamation have been viewed differently by fariqayn scholars.

These teachings advise man of his eminent position in the universe and, as a result, such a man would not be plagued with negative thinking of self-underestimation. Again, introducing human special predispositions, the teachings provide him/her with a part of knowledge to the extension of option to control and manipulate the events, upon which one shuns the ego-centric interpretation of events. Furthermore, believing in the teachings and accepting them as true, the expectations and abilities would strike a balance as a result of which man sees him/herself free from the cases of ‘ought to’ and ‘ought not’.

A part of the verses includes those centering on the issue of angles’ prostration before Adam. These verses are included among the most beautiful and man-glorifying ones, however, difficult to be commented. That is why different commentators have differently interpreted the quality of Angle’s prostration including: laying down the forehead on the ground, greeting Adam with humility and respect or viewing Adam as Qiblih. Different commentators have disputed if Adam himself, as the sample of humankind, had been the subject of worship or the reference is made to the totality of humankind. Whether all angles are told to prostrate or some of them, is another case of difference among commentators. The current research, therefore, reviewing the aforesaid point of views, has postulated that references to prostration in these verses denotes the real act of prostration on the part of angles to pay honor to the dignity of humankind.

Some believe that putting effort in doing corruption in the land indicates the intention and purpose of “Muharib” so, only by putting corruption into effect, the subject deserves to be punished as Muharib. On the contrary, some believe that the intention and purpose to do corruption is enough to punish someone as Muharib because they know it as ifsad fi al-arz as evidenced by the denotative meaning of Muharibih in the verse.
